I got out of control again with my weight. I feel by keeping a log I will make myself more accountable. My immediate goal is too get my weight down to 175 and my waist to 33.25. I do a 3 on 1 off workout schedule. Feel free to give any input. I will be eating around 1800-2000 calories.

I had a solid workout today. I increased weight on my lifts from my previous workout. I also reduced rest periods for 180 sec to 150 sec. I'm trying to bring more intensity to my workouts.

What is your maintenance level in calories? I'm wondering because 1800-2000 calories a day seems pretty low, even for cutting.

Not a bad day. The diesel test and ether tabs seems be making me aggressive. I whipped right through my workout today. My workout partner could not keep up.

Thanks for stopping by. My maintenance level is 2500. I'm not a very active person. I roll out of bed at 650am and sit at my desk for 9hrs. Then I go to the gym.
 
If your maintenance is 2500 cals, I wouldn't suggest going any lower than 2000. On occasion eating 1800 would be fine, but not every day, unless you plan on losing a lot of muscle.

I had a good workout. Strength went up on all exercises. I lost almost 3 pounds for the week. Also a little around the waist.

Thanks for the advice. I upped my calories to around 2100-2300. I don't want to lose muscle.
